Event Details

   Jane Addams was an activist ahead of her time. Within the walls of Hull House on the Near West Side of Chicago, Illinois, she led a social movement and amassed an army of women to demand change, pushing boundaries and breaking barriers along the way. Ultimately, Jane Addams and the women of Hull House changed their community, their city, and the world.
